well it dosnt get any smoother then that. lol
Edit: I wouldnt be disapointed, their are alot of veriables that make up peak hp, Track number tell alot more about a car....... And get that car tuned, You had it dynoed why didnt you get it tuned at the same time thats what dynos are ment for. I would expect higher results with a tune.

I won't go much higher than that on stock tuning (rev limiter ~5750). I am in the same boat as you until I get my own rev limiter raised.

100-150 bucks for a mail order tune and you can be making a fair amount more hp plus better driveability. I really don't understand why you folks spend all that money in mods and don't spend the money for at least a mail order tune. It is very essential for a electronic fuel injected motor.

Those results seem fine for an untuned car. Shoot Ion a e-mail and have him throw together a tune for ya. It will be worth it. http://www.madz28.com

Seems low to me even with stock tuning.

Freaklt1 01-29-2006 10:38 AM

Your numbers are low. I would expect 330 rwhp out of that set up. I would get a tune to get the rev limiter bumped up to 6200 or so. Let mad z28 put his tune in there if you want, but I highly doubt you will gain more than 6-7 hp unless he really leans it out. The main reason you need a tune is because you are just starting to hit your peak power and it looks like you will need to be able to shift at or above 6k to take advantage of your powerband at the track.

It's not that I don't WANT to, I WILL. All in due time when the money comes in. I've got over $10k in mods in my car (Lord I have no clue how it added up that fast...) and all of it's done with cash. My car isn't a credit card machine, so some mods take a while to purchase, all the while maintaining everything else as the car gets older. I had to replace my driver's seat due to a hole wearing in it, and you know, while I was at it, "might as well get TWO seats so they match". ;)

Nice, putting out more than my Lt4, but I still have stock exhaust manifolds.
